The Role

We are looking for a dynamic, passionate Head of Department to develop and lead our Food Technology Department.

 

The Academy was one of the founding members of the Fallibroome Trust, a highly regarded and outstanding Multi Academy Trust, based in Cheshire, providing opportunities for development and collaboration across the Trust as well as within the school itself.

 

Our Academy is an 11-16 mixed comprehensive school, and we currently have 1070 students. Our intake is non-selective and varied. We pride ourselves in our inclusive approach, but we never compromise on high expectations.

 

This post represents a great opportunity for an ambitious teacher with a passion for the subject and the enthusiasm to motivate our learners to achieve to the best of their ability.

 

Although this advert is for a full time role we would welcome applicants seeking a part time position.


If you have any questions about the role, or the application process, or if you would like to arrange a visit to the school please contact jane.fox@winsfordacademy.org.uk. Please also get in touch if you think Winsford Academy may be the school for you but you're looking for a different role. We'd love to add you to our talent pool.

Cheshire is a wonderful county in which to live and work. If you're considering relocating for a teaching or leadership role at The Winsford Academy do contact us to enquire about our generous relocation allowance.


How to apply


We ask all applicants to apply through Face-Ed; our recruitment software. This enables us to efficiently carry out our safer recruitment checks, but we recognise it can take some time for the applicant. The good news is, you will only need to register for Face-Ed once to apply for any role in the Fallibroome Trust's 10 schools.


Our top tips for a painless process are as follows:


  1. Because Face-Ed is cloud based software, it is possible for you to experience a break in connection and you won't necessarily know about it straight away. We therefore strongly recommend that you prepare your main application content in a different package like MS Word/Notepad and copy and paste it into your Face-Ed application form in the relevant sections.
  2. If you get a message saying "Validation Error" it isn't a software fault. It means you have entered data in a format that wasn't expected and it is causing a problem with saving. This might mean you have entered words in a box that expects numbers, for example.
